WOMAN'S WORLD

FOR OUR LADY READERS.

Where Girls are 'Boy-Crazy."

[By Nerina Shute.]

An English girl who has returned to England after being alucated in America.

In the land where sophisticated gentlemen of sixteen and seven- teen escort equally sophisticated ladies of the same age on "petting parties" of a highly comprehensive nature, it is not surprising that ancients of twenty and thero- abouts view the world with a) cynicism worthy of infant Bernard Shaws.

On the whole, American girls of this age are beautiful, world- weary end sax-engrossed, in strange contrast to their British alators.

Going to an American high school is a moral, as well as a mental, education. One year is sufficient to provoke that "boy- crazy" attitude which is a common term of description..

This is the white felt sport hat so popular at Biarritz. It.. is quite farge and floppy and trimmed with a hemstitched and picoted green linen ribbon.

Moodless Men.

Men are continually puzzled by the variability of woman,

Her ever-changing personality loepe them constantly guessing as of them have dong since elven up to what they may expect but most trying to explain why she should appear to be so much more many- sided than man is.

Two years of co-education cover, especially in the West, a multitude of things that are not taught in the curriculum. Three years produce an excellent knowledge of history, literature, and the finer points of Intricato "petting." And four years-ahl four years may well be But do they never ask themselves called the culmination of an all-whether it would not afford them- round, comprehensive, and broad-selves some relief to be able to show minded education.

On Looking Too Young.

"Much more youthful looking," aald the earnest little milliner, as she fixed a charmingly girlish' model at the exactly right angle on a' middle-aged client's bead.

I did not have the opportunity of finding out whether the "youth- fulneas" of the hat was considered an attraction by the customer or not, but, personally, I can imagine just as many objections being raised against the hot that is war- ranted to tako ten years off a woman's ago as against the one that puts ten years on to it.

Most women, I fancy, like to look young, because it is really true that many women feel the age they look; and who does not like to feel young?

But does he not enjoy the short release from his everyday self?

As matter of fact the relief that comes of being able to show oneself In a different light is one of the greatest becoms of a holiday, and if men would give more expression to their moods, and cease to strive so hard to appear always at the same dend level of calmness they would, I believe, gain tremendously In manya.
